I just waited in the bathroom for half an hour, but no one came in.
Have they already left?
With this thought in mind, I cautiously emerged from the bathroom.
I came to the window and took another look down below.
However, Reynaldo’s car was still parked downstairs, proving that they hadn’t left yet.
I went to the corridor again and looked downstairs to the living room.
There was no one in the living room, and the entire villa was quiet.
Strange, where are the people?
Were they discussing matters in the study?
Well, no matter where they were, as long as they didn’t come to the bedroom.
But come to think of it, Johnathan also came back with him this time.
With someone else present, he probably wouldn’t come to the bedroom.
Taking advantage of this time, I quickly turned back to the bedroom and hastily organized my belongings.
Regardless of whether Reynaldo would come to the bedroom or not, I had to quickly tidy up my things and leave as soon as possible, just to be safe.

Now, with the way things have turned out between us, meeting him will only increase his disgust.
I didn’t have many things, except for clothes and toiletries. In a few moments, I stuffed all those things into the suitcase.
When I came out of the bedroom, I was afraid of disturbing them, so I didn’t dare to drag the suitcase on the ground, I could only carry it.
Afraid of hearing footsteps, I even took off my shoes.
I held the shoes in one hand and carried the suitcase in the other, walking cautiously in the corridor.
As I passed by the study, perhaps because the door wasn’t closed tightly, I suddenly heard their conversation.
I didn’t intend to eavesdrop, but I overheard them mentioning Danielle.
What I am most worried about now is Danielle’s situation, so I unconsciously stopped and leaned against the door, nervously listening to their conversation.
Johnathan: “Is grandma okay?”
Reynaldo: “Fortunately, she escaped from the life–threatening situation, but she is getting older and feeling a bit weak. I will go to the hospital later to accompany her.”
I pursed my lips.
It’s good that grandma was not in danger.
The two broken bracelets are still in my pocket, and when I think of my grandmother’s pained expression at that time, my heart feels extremely uncomfortable.

“Did I hear that Grandma was sick with Esmeralda?”
I was about to leave quietly when suddenly I heard Johnathan say this again.
I paused for a moment, hanging my head, but in the end, I still wanted to hear what Reynaldo had to say.
Reynaldo remained silent for a long time before speaking, “My grandmother gave her the bracelet that she had cherished her whole life, but she broke it in front of my grandmother.”
When Reynaldo said these words, his tone was very cold and filled with deep resentment.
I bit my lower lip and cried so hard that tears fell down.
I really wanted to tell him that I didn’t mean it, I really wanted to explain to him.
But the bracelet was indeed broken by me, broken right in front of so many people. How else can I explain it?
#
No matter how much explanation, it will only appear pale and powerless in front of this man.
Johnathan fell silent for a moment and said, “Could there be any misunderstanding among all this?”
Reynaldo sneered coldly, “What misunderstanding could there be?”
“Um, I heard that it seemed like Grandma got sick, and she was wrongly accused of stealing that bracelet, so…”
“So this is the reason she broke the bracelet? If she cared even a little bit about me, she wouldn’t have done that. She knows very well what that bracelet represents.”

“Huh, so you were so angry because she didn’t care about you?”
I listened to Johnathan’s words in astonishment.
How is it possible? How is it possible that Reynaldo would be angry because of this?
In Reynaldo’s mind, I was just a lowly mistress. How could my concerns or lack thereof possibly affect his emotions?
Sure enough, Reynaldo sneered, “What angers me is that my grandmother’s enthusiasm and sincerity are worth nothing in her eyes. She even despises them.”
No, I didn’t, I have never despised my grandmother!
I shouted in my heart, and tears uncontrollably streamed down.
Now, at this point, whatever I say, Reynaldo probably won’t believe it.
In the study, Johnathan sighed and said, “Thank goodness Grandma is fine this time. If, I mean, if something really happened to Grandma, what would you do? Would you be willing to seek revenge for her?”
“Are you willing?” Reynaldo sneered again, his voice as cold as frost. “If Grandma was really killed by her, then I will definitely make her pay with her life.”
